Jack Reed: “Thank you very much, Senator Murkowski.”

It is far past time for President Trump to recognize the lasting harm that Pete Hegseth is inflicting on the Department of Defense.

A blatant abuse of power and taxpayer dollars.

His administration removed Nicolás Maduro from power, threw its weight behind the unelected leadership that replaced Maduro, and is now attempting to use U.S. military assets and taxpayer-backed financing to boost a private oil venture.

While the President and his family accumulate billions of dollars through dubious deals, normal hardworking Americans are struggling just to get by.
